Bug: Future Suggestions + Channels you receive

[Bob Violence]

I've searched for this, but I guess I'm not searching for the right thing (surely I'm not the only one with this problem).

Ever since my HR10-250 upgraded to 6.3a, this is happening:

Go to Pick Programs to Record from the Main Menu, then select Suggestions to see future airing suggestions (not suggestions that have already been recorded in the Now Playing List).

Everything looks good, except for suggestions that are on local channels over the satellite (not *-1 OTA channels) ... channels 2 through 67 (or whatever it is they stop at).

When I view the info on the suggestion, I get "Check ** **** in channels you receive, or call 1-800-DirecTV to order".

Problem is, that channel IS checked in my receive list, and I DO get that channel over the satellite ... I can tune to it, and watch it no problem.

So, since Tivo thinks I DON'T receive any local programming over the satellite, it doesn't record that particular suggestion.

WTF ??

I don't think I have ever been in the suggestions section before but, I went in to take a look to see what would happen. I only found suggested programs that are on 4 of the 9 local channels I receive. Out of those four, one exhibits the problem you are describing. It is my local fox affiliate. And, like you, it is in my channels received list and I can tune to it just fine. Dunno.

Same here on Raleigh, NC, locals via D*. Will suggest but not record due to same message.

I had this happen. Check my thread here and let me know if you are having any of the other problems I describe:
